The way in which NixOS works in regards to packaging, locations of config files and others makes it very opinionated imo. You have to do it the nix way and trying the “normal” way doesn’t work in most cases.
Nothing wrong with having a canonical way to configure things, but if it’s not excellently documented people are going to try doing it the wrong way and get frustrated.
